django 1.5 gunicorn workers eats memory

I am using django 1.5 and gunicorn (sync workers)

Workers memory usage grow with time

i try to use Dozer to find the reason, but get:

AssertionError: Dozer middleware is not usable in a multi-process environment

How can i found the reason of leaking, any ideas?

I solved it by upgrading django to 1.5.1 (1.5 has some memory leak bugs)

We had this issue recently (with memory usage slowly climbing until the server(s) could not keep up).

We set gunicorn max_requests variable and it solved our problem. We set ours to 1000, although I'm not certain what the "ideal" setting would be.

http://docs.gunicorn.org/en/latest/configure.html#max-requests

Although I'm not sure if there may potentially be some reason why this became a problem to begin with.
